obligations. The right of re-entry, however,
is accompanied with the obligation to leave
as soon as the purpose is effected. No other
power is to have any right to send troops
into Egypt. This is the arrangement which
the English, through Sir Henry Drummond
Wolff have been endeavoring to get the
Porte to agree to. After the Porte has
agreed to it, the convention must be submit
ted to several of the great powers for their
consent to certain of its stipulations.
Affecting as it does so important subject
as the future relation of England to Egypt,
the convention is very grave measure
of diplomacy. The long hesitation of the
Sultan in giving his approval of it has re-
suited in considerable friction in Europe.
France, though she wants by all means to
see England out of Egypt, does not like the
convention; and she has threatened the
Porte that she will make trouble if it is
signed. France is the power most nearly
concerned after England, and even if the
Porte should sign the convention, she
would then have chance to give or with
hold her assent. Russia, also, has been
credited with interference to prevent the
Porte giving consent, though Russia can
have less direct interest than France.
Should the Porte and other powers finally
agree, the British occupation of Egypt will
be put upon a regular basis, with some limit,
though an indefinite one. Should the con-
vention be rejected the question will be as
far as ever from settlement.
The Portland daily press., 1887-07-06
The Egyptian Convention.

The latest potentiality of trouble among
the European nations is the so-called Egyp-
tan Convention, which Sir Henry Drum
mond Wolf has drawn up for the Joint as
sent of England and the Porte. 1t will be
remembered that year or more ago, when
the situation in Egypt was very acute and
interesting, Sir Henry Drummond Wolff
was sent on a special mission to the HeIles-
pont and Egypt. That that mission related
to the complicated question of British inter-
vention in Egypt was very generally known.
The Convention, so called, is very recent,
and also very disturbing result of that mis-
sion. The Suez canal, Engand's great high
way to the East, comes in for share of con-
sideration, but the most interesting part of
the convention relates to the term of British
occupancy. In three years, it specifies, from
the ratification Of the convention, the Brit
ish troops will be withdrawn from Egypt on
certain specified conditions, and in five years
the right Of the British government TO APP
point the officers of the Egyptian army will
expire. The condition precedent to eyacua-
ton at the end Of three years is that if there
is to be any danger apprehended at the time
when the evacuation should begin, it will be
deferred until that danger has passed. The
Convention also reserves to the British the
right TO send their troops back for three rea-
sons: to repel external invasion, to subdue
internal rebellion, or TO compel the Epvn-
tian government to fulfil its international

1t is fitting and proper, perhaps, that the di-

some current sentimentality concerning this

THE GRANITE STATES RAILROAD FIGHT.
Boston Transcript
The intensity and closeness of the fight be-
tween the Boston 81 Maine Railroad and
Concord Railroad, before the New Hamp-
shire Legislature, Is shown by the influences
which are marshalled on both Sides One of
the Whiteheld representatives introduced
the Boston Il Maine bill. SO the adherents of
the Concord Railroad have had town meet
ing called in Whitefeld to instruct both rep
resentatives from that town to vote against
the Boston IL Maine bill. This is rather
rough practice ON the Whitefield man who
presented the measure for legislative cOnsid-

Gov. BodwelPs address at Canton will be
read with pleasure by all the friends of the
prohibitory law. If words mean anything
it is evident that the State has for its chief
executive officer man who will enforce the
prohibitory law not simply because his oath
of Office constrains him to but also because
he is firm believer in it and feels that its
rigid enforcement will be beneficial to the
State His heart is evidently in the work.
The Governor expresses his intention of
pressing forward as rapidly as possible the
question which has been raised in Burns's
case to final decision. That is right. His
confidence that the Supreme Court of the
United States will reverse its decision of
sixty years ago and admit the power of the
State by a police regulation to forbid the
sale of liquor by the importer as well as by
the ordinary purchaser is probably justified.
The court when it reviewed this decision in
1S47 admitted the principle commended for by
the State, but disagreed as to the applica-
ton of it-that is some Of the judges held
that intoxicatin liquor was not an article
so dangerous to the public health or public
morals as to make it proper subject for
police regulation. But public sentiment in
regard to the effect of intoxicating liquor
has changed very much in forty years, and
the feeling that it is a fit subject for re-
striction or prohibtory legislation has be-
come almost universal 1t would not be
surprising if more difficulty were encoun-
tered in getting the case to the Supreme
Court of the United States than after it gets
there, for it must first run the gauntlet of
the Supreme Court of Maine, and that body
has in several dictums and once in decision
very clearly committed itself to the doctrine
of the right of the importer to sell the liquor
which he has himself imported in the origin
al packages. And the statutes of the State
also seem to assume that that right exists

Dominion Day, the anniversary of the
union of the Canadian Provinces, cores
ponds somewhat to our Fourth of July and
comes at about the same time of the year as
our national holiday. This year is the TWEEN
tieth since the formation of the Dominion.
1t Is interesting to note the difference be-
tween the exuberant rejoicings of the Amer
lean people on Monday, and the sentiments
with which Dominion Day is greeted by
portion of the Canadian people. In the Low
er Provinces the discomfort with the results
of the union is very great, as is already well
known. The following editorial on Domin-
ion Day from the st. John Globe may be
taken with grain of salt perhaps, as it
comes from paper very favorable TO an
nexation to the United States but the con-
ditions which it enumerates are mainly true,
and its estimates of the amount of enthusi-
assn cannot be wholly outof the way:
The twentieth anniversary of the Joining of the
occasion of much enthusiasm in this part OF the
Dominion. The rejoicing, indeed, is confined to
comparatively few Misgoyened for the greater
iolerable burdens, and suffering from loss Of
lfade, the lower provinces have little to be thank
lSl Tor IN the union on ihelcontrary the feeling
IS steadily making Roadway in the other prov
lnces, and large portion of the people would
gladly welcome the day that would free them
from the Canadian union.
In the Province Of Nova Scotia there have
been as unequivocal signs of impatience
with the union, as is this neglect of Domin-
ion Day in New Brunswick. During the
jubilee celebration in Halifax, an occasion
when every spare sentiment of patriotism
and loyalty was mustered, the Chronicle
newspaper, the leading Liberal paper of
Nova Scotia, hoisted from its building the
stars and stripes and the Nova Scotia flag,
but gave no place to the Union Jack. That
same day the only flag that was flung TO the
breeze from the Province building, which
corresponds to our State House at Augusta,
was the Nova Scotia flag. Not only was the
British ensign ignored, but was actually or
dered down from the flag staff by officials of
the Nova Scotia government after it had
been hoisted. That this act is likely to re-
ceive official attention from the Dominion
or British authorities will not smooth mat
tiers. When the people of two great prov
inces, or rather three, if Manitoba be Count
ed, are galledby the yoke of union, Domin-
ion day is but poor parody of our Glorious
Fourth

The grafton delivered BY NM. sea- 1. Lar

The Grafton delivered by Mr.. Seth l.. Lar
rabee on the Fourth of July was an admira-
BILE effort. Evidently the speaker has made
a thoughtful study of some of the problems
that are pressing on us for solution, and his
grafton contains many valuable suggestions
in regard to them. Mr.. Larrabee is hopeful
of the future, yet he does not shut his eyes
to the dangers ahead, but prudently prepares
to meet and avert them. His suggestion in
regard to corporations, that their earnings
above fair percentage Of profits belong to
the State, and should be turned over to it, is
novel. certainly, and will set people to
thinking. The settlement of the rights and
responsibilities of corporations, who derive
valuable privileges from the State, consti-
tutes one of the most pressing and difficult
problems of the present day, and is one that
has enlisted, and will continue to enlist the
attention of our most thoughtful men,

There are good many Democrats now
who wish that the episode of the battle flags
had never come up and il is safe to say that
one of them is Senator F. NJ. Cockrell of
Missouri. Among the men who have come
forward with medals for capturing rebel
flags is a Captain Pentzer Of Illinois, who
took the colors of the first Missouri brigade
at Blalrly, Alabama, in 1865. Senator then
Brgadier General, Cockrell commanded
that brigade. In describing the capture
Captain Pentzer says Il came upon Gen.
Cockrell, who surrendered to me as prison
er Of war, harding me his headquarters col
ors himself" This flag was presented to
the Missourians by fair lady of rebel lean
ings, and the speech of acceptance which
Gen. Cockrell made was very gallant One
passage of it is interesting reading along
side of Captain Pentzer's report. 1t is that
wherein Gen. Cockrell expresses the opinion
that Sin the faces of the foe it shall be borne
to victory or crimsoned with the gushing,
richest treasures of our pierced hearts"

A Brave Boy.

A correspondent of the Woodland Demo
crat writes as follows concerning a recent
occurrence near Davisyille: IA really
heroic deed was performed week or so
back by Guy Miner, lad about l6 years of
age, the facts of which were made known
by the actors only few days ago. Ii APP
pears that number of boys were swim
ming in one of the deep pools west of here,
when son of Joseph Miller, either seized
with cramp O. through exhaustion. sank to
the bottom. a second boy of the party, a
son of James Campbell, who went to his
aid, was seized by the drowning boy. and
both were IN imminent danger when GUY
Miner, the youth mentioned above, plunged
into the water with all his clothing on ffor
it appeass he had not joined the others in
bathing), and by extraordinary exertions
contriged to drag the two helpless bows to
land, one of whom was with difficulty rs
suscitated. The reason for keeping the nat
ter secret was most likely because Che
bathers feared punishment, while yaT.ng
Miner is naturally of silent and retiring
nature, little given 10 talking, even among
his most intimate friends. This net, now.
ever, proves him possessed of rare courage
and presence of mind"
